I was extremely sheltered and had almost no access to the internet. I figured out I was a dragon on my own, and later discovered the Otherkin community. It was wonderful to learn I wasn't alone •Anything we Should Know?- I'm a friendly goofball, but I also enjoy engaging in serious discussions as well. My DMs are open to all! •Additional Information- I am plural! Our system does not have a collective name. We're just folks hanging out.

Horn design is that of a Grant's Gazelle. •The Nature of your Awakening- I awakened in '05 and spend the better of a decade meditating, astral traveling and lucid dreaming my way towards every memory I could find about my past lives. I found out I'm split soul, meaning one life (that of a male dragon) is parallel to this life but in a different world. I later learned about my past (mostly female) lives and feel the closest connection with them.

pronouns

•Name- Aëto •Pronouns- They/them •Physical Age- 23 •Type of Dragon (if applicable)- Western dragon (I guess) •Kintype (if applicable)- Dragonkin, my kintype is probably feral •Draconic features (if applicable)- golden brown scales and fur, blue underwings, double-ended tail, small horns (see drawing below !) •Unique features- based on my experience, my species is born with white scales, which darken as we age •The Nature of your Awakening- I knew I was a dragon since I was 9 or so, and started making dragon noises to communicate with my father. I discovered the term otherkin at 15 (and brushed it off, because it's only an internet thing, isn't it ?). Rediscovered it last year, and finally joined the community. It has been a great joy ever since

15 years old me was foolish to put it aside. •Anything we Should Know?- I dreamt once of a cave filled with polished labradorite, and I added it to my inner world, Archevent. Also, I'm not a native speaker, sorry for any mistake/weirdly structured sentence. •Additional information- the wonderful ilviewhitewolf on Tumblr drew me (see image below), and looking at her drawing brightens my life

•Name- Ksaa •Pronouns- She/Her •Physical Age- 37 •Type of Dragon (if applicable)- Non-terrestrial Western •Kintype (if applicable)- Psychological/Spiritual •Draconic features (if applicable)- No breath weapon; Large wing to body ratio; Long tail to body ratio; Prehensile, whippy tail; Belly scales are normal scales, not scutes; Appropriately body the size of a horse; Strongly barreled chest; Opalescent nacre scales. •Unique features- I'm a runt, and have a body size somewhere close to an amur tiger; I have a large scar on my chest; Dusky green scale color, with straw yellow belly scales. •The Nature of your Awakening- Always knew i was... something else, since before i can remember. In my early teens i came to the full realization of my draconic self. I began an intensive soul searching regime, which i've maintained to this day. I've learned so much about myself. Since my childhood i've used my soul searching techniques, such as zen, to balance out the traumas of my life. •Anything we Should Know?- Me and my draconic half live concurrent lives. We are neither our "past" lives, and still both live. This means memories of our more recent lives tend to filter over to each other. This is possible due to us sharing a single soul. (More accurately, it's her soul i'm sharing.) As such we share some basic communication abilities, though full on direct conversation is extremely difficult to achieve or maintain. •Additional information- I'm pretty open about my species, and am likely to word vomit about them on command. I'm also on the autism spectrum, have ADHD, and a lot of trauma, but try to avoid those topics because they dominates so much of my life. I am technically a System/Plural, but my draconic half is not included in that. Likewise, i do not actively call myself a system as my headmate is not active, and insist on hibernation. (edited)

Night is a good name for us Collectively if we don't know who's fronting. •Pronouns- He/Him,She/They •Physical Age-22 •Type of Dragon (if applicable)- Shapeshifting Space Dragon/unknown. My being is a Deity. •Kintype (if applicable)- I specifically within the collective, am a Dragon.

My eyes are a deep green, but up close deep blue. I am learning more about myself(selves) as I go. •The Nature of your Awakening- I've known since I can remember and have been learning about myselves and developing myself when I can.

We're on the Autism ADHD spectrum and have a hard time descerning tone verbally or over text please use tone tags , explain, or be direct if we don't get something . I recently discovered my being was waiting to become the main fronter for a while and now I am. This is new to me.. I only woke up fully here a month ago (February) We've been aware of and intermittently in the Otherkin, Therian community since 2009 (edited)

Name: Doppel Draconius Pronouns: He/Him Physical Age: Early 30's. Type of Dragon: Western-like winged quadruped dragon. Draconic Features: Classic feral four legged, two winged, one-tail and two-horned bronze-colored dragon. Probably has a beard. Two grey horns. Black spikes on the back. Grey tailspade and foot... pads thing. Probably threw lightning out of the mouth. Nature of Awakening: This is a bit of a trope, but I've never played well with others as a kid. When I moved to Canada in 2007ish and had reliable internet access for the first time ever I have accidentally stumbled upon some old dragonkin site from forever ago looking for dragon wallpapers for my crappy laptop. Well, one thing led to another and I pretty much confirmed myself to be dragonkin the whole time, and met a lot of dergs both good and neutral and... well sometimes not good in my life. I've been in and out of the community ever since. Anything we should know? - I play games on PS5, I guess. I also am an engineer IRL and run a lot of servers and equipment and do programming and even some electronics builds. I recently got a new career in Cloud Computing for a massive company and work on servers as a day job. I may have assisted in getting you food when you ordered it on an app and may have touched that self checkout machine you have used.

Additional Information - I've travelled far and met three dragonkin and two therians in person after knowing them online. Looking to meet more soon but the pandemic and virusy world makes physical meets hard.

Name: KinDD or Bela Physical age: 37 years Type of dragon: I have several shapes ranging from the classic western dragon to a more serpentine like form. Draconic features: While I consider myself mostly astral in nature, I do have (had or will have) a bodily draconic form that I experience for myself. I do have wings in every form though. I also have fins / spikes along my back that I feel rather present and that tend to extend, when I'm stressed or anxious. Last but not least, I have an affinity to the water element. Actually, being in this current body, I feel quite unique. The telepathic connection between myself and other dragons seems more muted in this 3D-realm then in the astral plains, but still it is present. The nature of your awakening?:I have felt that there is something different about me since I was a child. Since I was very small I have felt scaly and lizardy. It was not an abrupt awakening, but has rather increased more and more. In 2007 I was able to give it a name and since then the journey continues. Awakening for me is more a process than a fixed point in time. Anything we should know? : I'm very curious and want to find out how the world works. I like working with the mind and the possibilities it offers. I'm grateful I've found this great community. Additional information: I love doing dream interpretations and like to help unraveling the metaphors and symbols of the unconsciousness. Feel free to DM if you'd like a discussion. I'm open for it. My scales are like those of a rainbow serpent, so there is a lot of the color spectrum to find. Blue and black are the main ones (Hope I'll get to a ref pic some day!). ---Totally lost in WoW since 2 months <..< -- (edited)

Disclaimer: most of this intro, up to 'anything we should know?' is copied from my entry on The Draconic Basin Name: Alkura Wintermist Physical age: mid-20's Type of dragon: Arctic Feathered Draconic features: -Quadrupedal (roughly matching to western body archetype) -Relatively small at 2 meters from tip to tail -Doesn't blow fire -Wings are birdlike -Entire body is covered in completely white feathers, patches of brown occur as feathers molt into warmer seasons The nature of your awakening?: I've been aware that I was definitely not just human since my days as a hatchling but it was something I didn't pay much mind to until my teenage years (circa 2014) . It wasn't much longer afterwards that I uncovered my draconity and, with a bit of further introspection, worked out the 'Arctic Feathered' bit of the equation. Anything we should know?: Nothing of note but I see a lot of people talking about their personal pursuits, I'll give it a crack too. In my day-to-day, I'm a cybersecurity worker with a specialization in legacy systems (think Windows 9x, old Linux releases, etc). I'm also quite passionate about motorcycles, having owned more in the past decade than most should in a lifetime KEKW

. Additional information: I originally was going to speak in this panel but was unfortunately unable to make it due to time constraints. I look forward to spectating where I can, particularly the modern draconity and careers panel (edited)

(also, cat) The nature of your awakening - First discovered otherkin back in 2007, realized it explained a lot o things, but ultimately ended up denying it again for years until it just got too overwhelming to ignore and ended up officially identifying this way in 2017.

As I learned a little more about it and found others through newsgroups (AFD namely, for anybody old enough to remember those), it really all made a lot of sense, and how I felt how large I was and looked like just came naturally from there •Anything we Should Know? - I may or may not have a bit of a liking to shiny discs, especially those made of particular metals; and travel... spring is quite the season of restless wing syndrome for me •Additional information - Ironic or conflict of interest it may seem, I am Christian. As such, I feel the true nature of the soul comes about when we are given our unencumbered "forever bodies". I feel as being scaled, though time shall reveal the true self at the appointed time.

Name Rakeela Pronouns Zie/Zir Physical Age 33 Type of dragon Western Draconic Features Heavy grey scales, dingy yellow earfins, muzzlehorn The Nature of your Awakening I woke up with a new identity one day 22 years ago, before having met any dragonkin. The existence of otherkin was a pleasant surprise. Anything we should know? I'm still an author without much success.

•Name- Illia •Pronouns- It/its, she/her •Physical Age- 18+ •Kintype- Dragon. •The Nature of your Awakening- I've always loved dragons and felt some level of nonhumanity, but didn't understand how I differed from the normal human experience as a child (beyond just being weird). I never had a single date or even year of awakening, no "click" moment, but found out about the otherkin community around 12 - 13ish and slowly came to terms with myself and being dragonkin step-by-step. I'm psychological otherkin and don't consider my identity spiritual. •Anything we Should Know?- The omitted sections were left out not because I mind answering them or sharing things about my kintypes, but because I'm autistic and have a hard time understanding open ended or vague questions so I didn't know what to put. If there's something specific you want to know, please feel free to ask. Also, I'm mute, so I can attend and participate via text in voice chat events, but the voice part I can't do. (edited)

•Name- orbit •Pronouns- they/them •Physical Age- 25 •Type of Dragon (if applicable)- Space/Celestial/ Dragon •Draconic features (if applicable)- I am purple! I have antlers like a eastern dragon, fluffy fur, and floppy ears. •Unique features (if applicable)- I can shape shift. •The Nature of your Awakening- i was struggling a lot in college and found the furry fandom. i made orbit as a fursona but I ended up feeling better and better when I identified as them and got into their headspace. only in the last year have i identified as otherkin/d. its still a developing experience and i have to do some more soul searching and memory work to really understand my awakening. •Anything we Should Know?- I am still questioning/understanding my draconic nature. I currently identify as a dragon gender-wise and a dragons are also my hearttype but these feelings might be more than that. •Additional information- I love handmade paper as it's my number one special interest. I love talking about art and art history too! I teach art classes to kids part time. i am also working on going to grad school for art conservation! (edited)

•Name- firebug! •Pronouns- he/they/it •Physical Age- 21 •Type of Dragon- some sort of vaguely eastern looking dragon? noodle •Kintype- dragon, angel, some fiction types •Draconic features- big noodle boy, red and gold, the details are kind of fuzzy •The Nature of your Awakening- past life discovered through a guided meditation and dreams :] •Anything we Should Know?- i'm not a big talker and kind of shy but i will most likely be looking around a lot and trying to join in on activities ^^ (edited)

•Name- Chihaya Kisaragi •Pronouns- she/her primarily, they/them are also ok •Physical Age- 18+ •Type of Dragon- Eastern (possibly Chinese) dragon, at least in terms of general appearance •Kintype (other than dragon)- Chihaya Kisaragi from THE IDOLM@STER •Draconic features- The clearest features I figured out so far are dark blue scales with brown underbelly, cyan antlers pointing backwards, nocturnal, possibly aquatic •The Nature of your Awakening- Looking back, the signs have been there for a while before I even discovered otherkinity. I’ve only started reading through otherkin resources more deeply since mid 2022 and I awakened as dragonkin a while later, then my fictionkin awakening happened late 2022. Even to this day I still attempt to discover more about my kintypes. I consider myself a psychological dragonkin & spiritual fictionkin. •Anything we Should Know?- I’m the host of a plural system, and the only dragon of the collective. When referring to the entire system, you can use the name Mizuki.

Preferred name: Norwaro Physical age: 22 Type of dragon: Sea Serpent Draconic features: About 11,8m long Midnightblue Arctic Sea Serpent, no limbs and only dorsal fins from snout to tailtip Any unique qualities of your draconic self?: Well a sea serpent, sadly one of the last around as far as I know... I deeply enjoy swimming in every natural water around, preferably in wild, untouched nature. I'm myself deeply connected with nature, and I can't even find the words to say how much I really am. I'm always quite wild and feral, especially around other dragons and don't shy away to show my true self >^;=;^< The nature of your awakening?: In contrast to most other dragonkins there wasn't really an awakening for me. Since I can think back I always knew who I am and what I am, though I always thought I am alone with what I experience, with my strange behavior and my deep love for dragons and dreams of them, all those memories from my past life.... How long have you been in the otherkin community?: In the online community I have been since 2018 after I thought for a long time I am alone with having a human body and dragon soul, though I always experienced the presents of draconic spirits around me. Any hobbies or interests you have?: Far too many to list here, basically I deeply enjoy being in nature, I do extreme sports, windsurf, repair electronics, usually industrial, HF and high power devices, travel, do fishing, and a lot of activities in the spiritual context. Desired roles: "mature" Additional info: All my life I spend my time out in nature whenever I was able to and still do each and every day, just so deeply enjoying each and every small bit of it as I let my dragon self free.... I absolutely love to meet other dragons from all over the world and I am always there to help whenever it is needed. As I can't write all in here, just feel free to message me if you wanna know more, you will be warmly welcomed <3

•Name- Reiji (host), Koru, White, Ruko (Megane System members) •Pronouns- He/Him, for any of us •Physical Age- 28 •Type of Dragon (if applicable)- Reiji - Vampire / Koru - Storm / White - Ice •Kintype (if applicable)- Alien, Fictionkind •Draconic features (if applicable)- I essentially look like a large bat with draconic features, no breath ability. Koru is a smaller white feathered wyvern with black skin, two tails, four wings, and a hollow crest which is used as a chamber for his electric breath to be generated. White is a slender, smooth skinned western dragon with narrow swallow-like wings and long fins behind his head and at the base of his tail, anti-freeze blood which allows ice to form across his skin. •Unique features- I can change between my bat/dragon form and vampire form. •The Nature of your Awakening- Rather dramatically, think it was back in 2015 now? An inescapable knowing, a truth that could not be denied. •Anything we Should Know?- dragontransformation

•Additional information-

•Name- Dinocanid, Amorphous •Pronouns- Dino = he/him, Ammy = she/her •Physical Age- 22 •Type of Dragon- Western shapeshifter •Other Kintypes- Wolf, dromaeosaurus, Undertale OC •Draconic features- Can shapeshift between wyvern, aquatic, and drake. Has opalescent scales. Can only breath smoke and embers, not fire (hatching issue) •The Nature of your Awakening- Unclear, have always felt nonhuman. As a dragon we were a singular entity though •Anything we Should Know?- We're a system of 4 with me, Dino, as the host. The other two may or may not participate, depends on how they feel •Additional information-

Preferred name: Bluefire Pronouns: He/Him Physical age: 20 Type of dragon: European Dragon Draconic features: I'm a European dragon with a scaly charcoal-black skin and glowing deep blue eyes. Horns along the back follow slightly its curvature until the tail, where they become more rounded and point upwards. The horns on my head point straight backwards. I have a tiny horn on my nose, too! Due to the sharp contrast between the horns/teeth/claws and his skin, they appear very white. The inside of my wings are grey, with my plated belly being the same colour. How long have you been in the otherkin community?: Though my interest in dragons came much earlier, the first time I became active inside of a community was in 2020. Any hobbies or interests you have?: Technology, including, server hosting, web development and radio. Discovering new dragon movies and books, as well as dabbling into a bit of writing myself. I also like Geocaching as well as travelling to new places. Additional info: I'm happy to talk just about anything, from technology to spiritual dragkin things. I'm there whenever you need a listening ear. :) Reference image?:

•Name- Ey'teneh-Onik •Pronouns- Kii/Kiih'e/Kiihiil or They/Them/Themself •Physical Age- 20's •Type of Dragon- Kynvhal (Humanoid Dragon or "Half-Dragon") •Other Kintypes- Corvid, Vampire, Skarmory/Corviknight (Trying to figure this one out) •Draconic features- Somewhat catlike facial structure, large, metallic horns and mane, scales which shift hue from frost blue to sky blue. Digitigrade legs and heavy tail. •The Nature of your Awakening- Kinda always just knew, and never particularly felt human, many incidents in my childhood and connection to dragons flagged me to the conclusion after I learned the term 'Draconic'. •Additional- I’ve been hovering about in draconic circles since ~2008, and therian scene for a few years. It’s really nice to meet new people, and the draconic scene as a whole is a nice place! I’m a bit of a meteorology nut and I used to love hiking, though nowadays due to disability I spend a lot of time gaming and managing DnD campaigns. :D (edited)

Name Amber Pronouns Any / Agender Physical Age 44 Type of Dragon Celestial dragon / spirit Kintype No other kintypes Draconic features Quite big western dragon (90-120m long) with metallic blue scales, usually not fully manifested / partly translucent / half-plasmatic. Unique features May fully turn into blue plasma, may appear very bright when powered up. Might be shapeshifter, but usually dragon. The Nature of your Awakening Hard to tell since it must've happened over 25 years ago. I always somehow felt non-human and disconnected from others, an outsider and bystander. Always felt an intense connection to nature. I can remember that I first identified as Falcon, but discovered species dysphoria and a very strange and deep kind of connection to dragons. When watching Dragonheart I, I already knew. I had a borderline out-of-body experience around 1995, feeling my body like a puppet. Since the end of 2018, I've been in a spiritual awakening that included several non-dual experiences. Anything we Should Know? I'm from Germany, working as a scientist with interests in renewable energy, climate change, nature conservation and various types of technology, also (quantum) physics, (para)psychology and spirituality. Ever curious to share Otherkin experiences.

•Name- Fiadh •Pronouns- it/she/he •Physical Age- 22 •Type of Dragon (if applicable)- Western •Kintype (if applicable)- Ice dragon, questioning Xeno/Safi'jiiva (Monster Hunter), several more (almost all Pokemon) that I won't list due to relative irrelevancy here •Draconic features (if applicable)- Pale cyan scales, Some white fur around claws and neck + down back, short black claws. Large horns of the same shade. Solid purple eyes. Large wings, thick tail slightly longer than the rest of my body. Quiteenormous, somewhere in the ballpark of ~120' long. •Unique features (if applicable)- Ice on wings and tail, basically permafrost, quite thick on the tail (which can be used as an improvised weapon) •The Nature of your Awakening- Specifically wrt being dragonkin, it largely boiled down to being around other dragonkin making me look more into the lifelong draw I've had towards dragons. It took me a while to figure out what type of dragon I am specifically, but I was able to realize I'm an ice dragon after some talk with both my partners (who are both dragonkin.) •Anything we Should Know?- I have (undiagnosed) anxiety that can get pretty bad so please be patient with me (it's why i left several times before sending this) and I'm also autistic + ADHD •Additional information- Somewhere between agender and genderfluid, idk gender's hard draithconic

•Name- hraesvelgr, dia, or vermilion (i may have a name collecting problem) •Pronouns- they/it/any •Physical Age- 22 •Type of Dragon- western (i think???) •Kintype- a whole list but mainly: dragon (specifically very much fictionkin of hraesvelgr from ffxiv), torracat (pokemon), and like a weird cat-fox thing •Draconic features-i'm covered in white feathers with light gray scales that are only really visible on my underside, i have big ol' feathery wings with claws at the end (there's also like a smaller set without the claws lower down on my back), two pairs of horns that kinda swoop downward, a somewhat canine snout, a long neck, a large tail with a triangle-pointed tip, and yellow eyes. ~~honestly just look me up on google images i'm not very good with descriptions~~ •The Nature of your Awakening- generally i never really vibed with that whole "being human" thing, kinda always knew i wasn't. specifically with dragon stuff, i've always had a draw towards them as well as very specifically draconic phantom limbs. eventually i kinda caved into the hints when i was playing through the story of ffxiv and had very strong feelings about dragon-related events in that game. to the fictionkin part, the character of hraesvelgr in said game was quite literally "literally me" and specific features lined up perfectly with phantom sensations i've been having. ~~also the whole past life memories thing seemed to cement that~~ •Anything we Should Know?- part of an osdd system, you'll see me mostly but we do have a couple other dragons. also i haven't really been super super active in a lot of otherkin spaces so idk many terms oops •Additional information- i'm one of those dragonkin partners fi mentioned up there hehe, ~~also yes this is literally copy-pasted from my intro for the draconic basin~~

There is also a double row of dull spines along the spine that end in six thagomizer spikes on the tail. •The Nature of your Awakening

Ever since I was young I had a deep sadness surrounding the idea of a lack of dragons in this world, and I always had a pull to the community (I found it way back in 2008 and would check on it every couple years in secret). It took a working through a lot of hard stuff and questioning to figure out that I actually was a dragon, and in hind sight it was incredibly obvious ^^;

•Anything we Should Know?

Whenever my special interests get brought up I can have a lot to say about them, though I will try my best to not spam or drag people into drawn out conversations!

•Additional information:

I'm a part time artist and world builder, as well as dabbling into making my own conlang (though its more a recovery attempt for my kobold tounge from the bits and peices I remember)

I'm poly and deeply love my partners, so you might be hearing me bring them up quite a bit ^^;

I'm what you would call a Gamer, and I'm also trying to get back into streaming
